High School Team To
Again Hit The
For the first time in nine years the
high school hockey team has ap-
pealed to the public for support in
the purchase of new uniforms. This
appeal has met with splendid re-
sponse and the newly re-organized
team, to be known as Didsbury
High School Royals, will shortly ap-
pear in their new finery at the local
arena,
This team replaces the High
School Beavers of past fame. The
Beaver uniforms finally wore out but
their traditions will be carried on
under the coaching of Mr. Ralph
carieit, physical education teacher
at the local high school.
In next week's issue of The
Pioneer We hope to show you this
year’s line-up and we will also men-
tion the local businessmen and
farmers who have so generously con-
tsiouted to the purchase of new
uniforms.
The boys would like to say “thank
you” to all who have contributed.
Come to the arena on Thursday, Jan.
17 and see the team in its first game
ayuinst the Olds High School.

Scouts Enjoy
‘inter Camp
If there is such a thing as “hitting
the jackpot” on a Scout camp, the
2nd Didsbury Troop scored a bull’s-
eye. Winter camps hardly ever
come equipped with soft Spring
breezes, pre-cut spruce bows and
free potatoes. But all these and a
lot more was the camping fare for
13 Scouts, an assistant Scoutmaster
and a Scoutmaster.
If the exceptionally mild weather
reduced 15 fearless arctic explorers
to 15 ordinary campers no one heard
any complaint.
Naturally a lot of fun went into
preparing for the camp, but much
more fun was enjoyed when the
camp was actually begun. The
troop located themselves on the
property of Mr. Davidson, on the
bank of the Fallen Timber river, not
too far from the Bergen store. The
land-owner had felled a sirail berth
of spruce, limbed the tre s, all in
readiness for the boys to build four
very fine spruce shelters and make
enough spruce bow mattresses to ac-
commodate them all. There they
camped for three days, Dec, 27 to
Dec. 29.
The highlight of thelr culinary
endeavors was the roasting of chick-
ens. These were spitted, wrapped
well in aluminum foi] and slowly
roasted, With the exception of one
small fowl] the chickens were served
succulent and tender.
Another interesting feature to the
old Scouts was tne initiating of five
Tenderfoots to the many experi-
ences of winter camping. Th
younger boys are to be commended
on their enthusiasm to tackie the
adventure. And whilst at camp each
pitched in like a veteran to learn
and to do whatever was required of
them. The beginners who won their
“spurs” were Brian Shantz, Dennis
Brado, Ted Veenstra, Wayne Heul-
ka and Brian Will.
Not only did the camp offer the
usual fun and adventure but it af-
forded the boys good opportunity to
lay up credits for badges, such as
winter campers, camp cook, camp-
ers, ete. And as in all such camps,
in pitting himself against the Cana-
dian winter, as mild as it was, and
| learning to fend for himself, the boy
who attended learned a little more
about the important business of
Among those who attended camp

THURSDAY, JANUARY 10, 1957

The hunter is a peculiar type of;
the human male which emerges for
one short period out of every year.
There ig no physical characteristic
marking the transformation. It ap-
pears in all age groups from the
‘wens Up and in all walks of life.
Any resemblance of the hunter to
the husband, father, son, brother or
sweetheart is purely coincidental.
Every morning for 10 months out
of each year, the male has a natural
immunity to alarm clocks, dutiful
wives or mothers. He never hears
noises in the basement, the cat want-
ing in or out or the two am. cry
from across the hall for a drink of
water. Normally, wo, tRe list of
household tasks requiring male at-
tention grows like a bad weed. The
jobs must wait until there is
some free time, or until the washing
machine actually falls apart and
there is no Clean shirts. The family
ig almost convinced that their
bread-winner is indispensable to his
job — until the hunting season rolls
around,
All at once there is time enough
to shop for shells, clean guns, check
decoys and arrange scouting trips.
Nothing is left undone that might as-
sure a good shoot.
On the first of the season, even
before the alarm rings 2:00 a.m. this
odd creature known as the hunter is
out of bed in a twinkling, wide awake
and ready to go. He can even cook
himself an elaborate breakfast while
shaving. At no other period in the
adult male's life is he quite so effic-
ient.
Of all the game birds hunted in
Alberta, the goose puts the hunter's
skill to the greatest test and provides
the biggest thrill. There's more
truth than fiction in the saying,
“On a wild goose chase." This par-
ticular fowl is a clever, cunning
creature which usually flies well out
of firing range. The hunter must
lay Careful plans and conscientiously
scout the terrain beforehand.
The business of spotting begins in
the early morning hours, usually on
a Sunday. Carloads of hunters are
seep streaming over country roads
and fields. All eyes are turned sky-
ward. A flock is sighted; the chase
is On, Binoculars bring the beauti-
ful birds seemingly within arm's
reach. When they have determined
on a likely feeding spot, the lead
bird brings his flock down; the hun-
ter patiently watches while the
geese dine. After satisfying their
hunger, they wing away to some un-
known rendezvous.
After gaining the farmer's per-
mission to shoot on his land. the |
hunter returns that same afternoon
to the same spot. He hopes the
Reese Will do likewise. Often the

Time Now To Think About...
The favorite winter sports in these parts. Curlers
have got their matched rocks in action and the square
draw is off to a good start. Annual bonspiel starts on
January 14, that’s next Monday. Hockey is very much
in the picture, with local teams vying for positions in
different leagues. Our favorites, the Ramblers, have
been blowing hot and cold to date, but promise to end
up in a playoff spot.
Time Now To Think About...
Another close check on the speedways in town, we
refer to the roads, and even sidewalks. Sunday seems
to be the day the heavy-footed characters try to maim
themselves or some other unsuspecting person. The
slippery conditions that exist now, and with shinny
games and children skating and playing with sleighs
on the roads, the practice is just that much more dang-
erous. Slow down fellas’, someone's going to get hurt.

Time Now To Think About...
The rest room project — the holidays are over and
we're all on a routine course again — let's get crackin’
on this important deal. Mountain View W.I. is the last
big contributor we've heard of .. . $50 toward the plan.
Time Now To Think About...
That light-up campaign we hinted about a few
times before the Yule season. T'was a fine effort on
the whole and very favorably commented on by many
visitors to town. We liked ours so well we haven't taken
the decorations down yet.
Time Now To Think About...
The meeting to be held Friday night to form a Com- |
munity Chest organization. All groups and the many |
organizations within the district are asked to send rep-
resentatives to Friday's meeting. The idea, of course,
is to do away with separate canvasses for different
causes and throw all the effort into one campaign —
it's worked everywhere else, why not here?

I understand that this coyote de«
struction program does not please
some of the coyote hunters in the
towns who like to go out of an
afternoon to shoot the coyotes for
sport. It seems that they think
the farmer should continue to feed
the coyotes with their live turkeys,
chicken, sheep, calves, etc, so that
hunting will continue to be provided
for them at their leisure. However,
the farmers who have been suffering
from these coyote depradations
think differently. Numbers of them
have suffered many dollars worth of
loss; are justified in taking the nec-
essary precautions to ensure that
these losses to their flocks are stop-

I told him so. “You said there's

THE DIDSBURY PIONEER, DIDSBURY, ALBERTA
By The Way
Contributed by
REV, T. J. STAINTON, M.A.
Our holidays at this time of year
always remind us of a song we all
know well. A lonely young man
away from home on Christmas Eve,
watched a father come in from
work. He was touched by the wel-
come the laborer received. He no-
ticed too, how the happiness about
the cabin door outshone the signs of
humble circumstances. The young
man returned to his room in the
country where he was seeking to re-
gain his health. He picked up pen
and paper, and as the tears of lonli-
ness dropped on the page, he wrote:
“Home, home, sweet sweet home,
Be it ever so humble, there is no
place like home.”
Edith Thompson speaks of home
a walk along a country road
when the day's work is done:
“In the low sunlight of the late
aftesnoon,
Homeward at close of day.
Past little houses, under roof
trees glimmering smile,
With blue smoke dangling from
each chimney tip.
Good supper smells and white
doors waiting —
On lawns, glad dogs and children
playing —
In swift companionship.”
Robert Burns, whose birth we
celebrate each January, wrote these
lines:
“To make a happy fireside clime,
To we'uns and wife,
That's the true pathos and sub-
lime
Of human life."
If you have not read “The Cotter’s
Saturday Night” recently, this
would be a splendid time to re-read
it. Burns has enshrined in this
poem truth that will always be
honored and cherished wherever
true homes exist. Where this is
lacking, homes dwindle and become
mere stopping places.
“From scenes like these old
Scotia’s grandeur springs,
That makes her lov'd at home,
rever'd abroad.
Princes and Lords are but the
breath of Kings,
An honest man’s the noblest work
of God.”
There should not be, there need
not be, a single dull moment in any
home. It is a delight to go into a
home, at the time of the evening
meal, where everyone talks at once
about everything. Everyone has had
an experience during the day, and
everyone is anxious to tel] about it.
Everyone has an opinion to express,
the children as well as the parents.
Where should these opinions be
more welcome than at home?
To the stranger. or to those who
have never enjoyed the privileges of
sharing in the life of the larger
family circle, all this might seem
like an endless argument. However,
it is nothing of the sort. It is just
a case of good healthy give and take.
Everyone feels free to give and
everyone is willing to take, and all
are happy.
There is always the hour of home-
work, where each helps the other.
This done there 1s often nuts to
crack, corn to pop or apples to eat.
In many homes there are those de-
lightful few minutes when all
gather around the old organ, or per-
chance a new piano, for a sing-song,
before mother points to the clock
saying, “It’s time we were all away
to our rest.” None want to stray
away, nor stay away from home
when it is like this, because they
would be sure they were missing
something really fine if they did.
Then too there is the family altar.
“A home lacking in prayer is like
a house without a roof, in which
there can be neither peace, comfo't
nor safety.”
I turned an ancient poet's book,
And found upon the page:
“Stone walls do not a prison make
Nor iron bars a cage.” |
“Yes, that is true, and something |
more:
You'll find where'er you roam,
That marble floors and gilded
walls
Can never make a home,”
“But every house where love abides |
And friendship is a guest,
Is surely home, and home sweet
home,
For there the heart can rest.”
Home, the most interesting place
in the world, |
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE |
The answer to mankind's great
need of purity and regeneration will
be emphasized at Christian eSRS |
services this Sunday,
Keynoting the Lesson-Sermon on
"Sacrament" is the Golden Text |
from Psalms (24; 3, 4): “Who shall
ascend into the hill of the Lord? or
who shall stand in His holy place? |
He that hath clean hands, and aj|
pure heart; who hath not lifted up
his soul unto vanity, nor sworn de-
ceitfully.”
Selections to be read from “Science |
and Health with Key to the Scrip- |
tures’’ by Mary Baker Eddy include |
the following (241: 23-27): “One's |
aim, a point beyond faith, should be |
to find the footsteps of Truth, the
way to health and holiness. We |
should strive to reach the Horeb |
height where God is revealed; and
the corner-stone of all spiritual
bullding is purity.”

Notes From D.A.
By HOWARD J. FULCHER
The size of a litter of pigs which
is weaned makes the difference be-
tween profit or loss to the producer.
A good sized litter of thrifty pigs
can be raised even in severe cold
long winter if proper management
practices are followed.
One common cause of losses in
litter pigs is the lack of sufficient
iodine in the sow's ration. When
the sow does not receive enough
jodine the thyroid gland is affected,
litter pigs thyroid gland function,
before birth and they suffer accord-
ingly.
These pigs may be born in a weak
and unsatisfactory condition; they
do poorly and losses are high. They
may in more severe cases be born
hairless, have puffy skin and en-
larged throats. In all cases losses
are high and profits in hog produc.
tion are greatly reduced or nullified
completely.
Prevention is simple, it is just
supplying sufficient iodine to the
pregnant sow. In some areas it is
not a problem and in others the io-
dized salt is sufficient. In most
areas of this province it must be
further supplemented by feeding the
sow potassium fodide.
Potassium iodide is fed by dissolv-
ing One ounce of it in one gallon of
water and feeding one tablespoon of
